A Plant to Love: ‘Dallas Blues’ Switchgrass

High Country Gardens is a fan of ‘Dallas Blues’ switchgrass, stating, “Panicum virgatum ‘Dallas Blues’ is among the finest of our native ornamental grasses.” And Plants Delights calls it “among the most stunning forms ever selected.”

This vase-shaped blue-hued grass has wide leaves and airy purplish plumes. Over 5 feet in height and upright, it remains standing through winter snow. It looks great planted in groups, as a specimen plant and even in large containers.
